Gloss black or satin black rims?! Powdercoat
Hey, I'm gonna powder coat my stock Camaro RS rims tomorrow and I have no idea what color, gloss black or satin black? These are the stock 20's that come with the RS package. Thanks! Please quick replies. Getting them done tomorrow morning.

When I plasti-dipped mine I went with several coats of glossifier on top. I really like the shine that the Glossifier gives it. I'd say go with gloss black.

Wet black. Have you went and looked at all their colors? I know the shop here in Vegas has a massive amount of combinations and custom colors. Be best to sit down and talk to the people who are doing the work to achieve the look you're going for.

I did mine Satin gives it more of an aggressive look. If u want something more flashy go with the gloss.

How much does this cost and who does it? Local body shop? Would love to do this and get rid of my plastidip. I'm thinking satin.

I've always felt like satin or matte was more of a crude, rough around the edges type statement; likely construed to be tougher, etc. I feel as though gloss black is more classy and refined.
I went with gloss black and I'm very happy I did.

I would go gloss........
Best of both worlds, Gloss when the car is clean, Satin when the brake dust appears..  -bobby

Satin Black to go with silver exterior. I have a white one, so will do gloss black.

Gloss.
I had the same decision to make when I got my wheels powdercoated. I went with "wet black" which was the most glossy they had. I'm glad I did because it looks great and cleans up really easy. And like the guy above said, if you feel like the satin look just don't clean your wheels for a few days and you got it. Here's mine after 3 years.

Satin but I will say it depends on your car color!
